i finally picked up my new 2 door X last night and its suppost to be perfect outside tomorrow so naturally i want to take the top down. when i looked last night i noticed that the top fits on the sides different than my TJ did. my question is, is it just as easy to take it down as my TJ? and if so how the hell do i do it? i know this is kind of a stupid question and i should just go out and try it before asking but i parked it right outside my window at work and i cant stop staring at it and daydreaming about driving around.

 

its really easy if you go to the jeep website there is a video you can watch on how to take the top down!

The guy in that video cracks me up. He's a wiz at taking that top down, but he looks a bit out of place... who's with me on this?!
I'm with you though dom - the weather is supposed to be fantastic around here this weekend and the top will definitely be coming down.

 

what you don't see is the other guy helping him

 

And the five million outtakes where he can't get the zipper to line up, the window falls off where he sticks the velcro on, etc.

 

When he's putting the top up you can see somebodys arms on the other side.

 

Taking it off is very easy. The harder part is getting back up. Once you do it a few times it you can do it in about 5 min. You could swing by the dealer if you want more hands on training. They showed me when i bought mine.

 

I can't use the TJ as a point of reference but the first time is definitely the hardest and like anything else the more you do it the easier it becomes. A buddy helped me the first time but I've been doing it solo in around 5 mins ever since.

 

I can't even remember how i took the top off on my TJ but this one is very easy.
